Premier League - Blackburn Rovers v Swansea City Odds and Betting Preview
By Robert Alexander on 2011-12-02 12:41:02
BLACKBURN, UK - Blackburn Rovers take on Swansea City on Saturday afternoon in a desperate bid to start accumulating points before they get caught adrift at the foot of the Premier League table. The Lancashire side are top priced at 6/5 (bet £5 to make £6 profit) with Paddy Power and Ladbrokes to win the match and move onto double figures while also relieving some of the pressure on manager Steve Kean. Swansea City have impressed this season and can be backed at best odds of 13/5 at Victor Chandler to win their first away match of the season. The draw is quoted at best odds of 12/5 at bet365 and Totesport.
Blackburn Rovers have the worst home record in the league with just one victory in six (a 4-3 thriller against Arsenal) while Swansea City have the worst away record in the league. Something has to give on Saturday as the home side will be determined not to lose a home match to likely relegation rivals come the end of the season. Swansea's home record gives them a good chance of survival but they will need to start picking up more points on the road to have a good chance of avoiding the end of season scrap.
The over/under betting market sees both sides of 2.5 goals quoted at odds on with most bookmakers, showing how tight the match is likely to be. Over 2.5 is a top priced 19/20 shot with bet365 and William Hill, with under 2.5 quoted at best odds of 19/20 at Ladbrokes.
Yakubu is yet to hit top form form for Blackburn and his proven Premier League goalscoring ability sees him top the first goalscorer betting at best odds of 6/1 with Coral. Young Blackburn Rovers and Scotland forward David Goodwillie has struggled to make an impact at Ewood Park but can be backed at 6/1 with bet365 and Ladbrokes to open the scoring. Swansea City forward Danny Graham is a doubt for this match and is a top priced 8/1 chance at Paddy Power to give the Welsh side the lead.
In the half-time/full-time betting Blackburn Rovers are quoted at best odds of 11/4 at Boylesports to win the match after leading at half-time, whilst draw/Blackburn Rovers is a top priced 9/2 shot at Coral and Skybet. Swansea City/Swansea City is best priced at 11/2 with 888 Sport and Blue Square while a Swansea City win after a draw at the break is quoted at best odds of 8/1 at Ladbrokes.
The match kicks off at 1500 GMT
